Hi,
I added some new code to libvirt.c, and recompile. However, when "make
install". qemud/.libs/libvirtd is installed but not qemud/libvirtd.
Why? Looks like a bug?
The problem is that qemud/libvirtd has my new code, but not
qemud/.libs/libvirtd! So "make install" installs the old binary, which
I dont know where it is from. (Perhaps from the first compilation?)
I am not familiar with the autoconf Makefile, and cannot figure it out
why it is working this way.
Many thanks,
Jun

no that's normal, qemud/.libs/libvirtd is the real binary generated
and qemud/libvirtd is just a shell script calling it. That's the
standard setup when using libtools in configure.

You look a bit confused, I suggest you do 'make distclean' and restart
configure, make and make install

This is not getting funny anymore. I clean src/.libs/*, and
qemud/.libs/*, and recompile and "make install" again. This step
installed stuffs in .libs/ into system.
Then I found that qemud/libvirtd and src/virsh works well together
(for ex, src/virsh -c qemu:///system list works well), but
/usr/sbin/libvirtd and /usr/bin/virsh dont work: "virsh -c
qemu:///system list" reports "failed to connect to hypervisor".
I am wondering what is going on with those binary in .libs/??
Thanks,
J

No, this is correct behaviour. qemud/libvirtd is not a binary - it is
a mere shell script which calls into qemud/.libs/libvirtd. This is all
part of the libtool build process.

You are mistaken - qemud/libvirtd is just a shell script wrapper.
The actual binaries are in the .libs directory.

Run 'make distclean' and then start again from 'configure'

Ah, that is so confused, the way to name files here.
So if qemu/.libs/libvirtd is installed into /usr/sbin/libvirtd, where
qemud/libvirtd is installed???
(It seems only qemud/libvirtd works for me)
Thanks,

It isn't installed anywhere.

This is a libtool thing. Admittedly quite horrible and counter-
intuitive, but using libtool arguably beats trying to work out how
shared libraries are created on Windows / HP-UX / AIX / CP/M / etc.
which is what libtool gives us.
You can find out plenty more in the libtool manual:

OK, but now running /usr/sbin/libvirtd fails (" ... failed to connect
to the hypervisor"), meanwhile qemud/libvirtd works for me. What
should I do now to run libvirtd???
Thanks,

It's not possible to say, given the paucity of information available
to us. Try the usual things: look for error messages in log files,
'strace' the processes, run with --verbose option, etc.
